Hear from our current Angels talk about what they like at Visiting Angels North Shropshire, and a career in care.
Why Visiting Angels
Visiting Angels has been providing care across the world for 20 years. Our business has been built on recruiting, training, and supporting the very best carers and enabling them to deliver premium quality care. We know that our caregivers are brilliant, loving, professional people doing amazing work that makes a real difference.
Too often care workers are under appreciated but at Visiting Angels we put our caregivers at the centre of our business to make sure they can deliver a truly person-centred service.
We believe, it is wrong that important people entrusted with looking after someone’s family should be expected to do so for minimum wage.
We know that asking someone give so much of themselves to caring is a big ask. We support our team when they are working and reward them for the joy that they deliver. We laugh together, share stories, and listen. Our carers are more than a team, they are more significant, they are much more like family.
How are we Different
At Visiting Angels we know that the work that carers do is amazing and wonderful and very often under appreciated.
As a carer-centric business we want to change that to make sure carers feel valued, rewarded and loved.

Just had the biggest cuddle off of DB just for asking is she would like me to polish her brass ornaments. I can’t get over how rewarding this job is! Absolutely love it!
Visiting angels has to be one of the best care companies I have come across. Not only do they give way over 100% to their client’s they also give it to their staff, I love getting up every morning knowing I’m going to make a difference in someone’s life. No visit ever feels rushed as no visit is under one hour this way I can provide high standers of care. Working for Visiting Angels was one of my biggest achievements ! Knowing they can provide ongoing training, nothing is ever too much for us angels in the community.
I thought when seeing the job advert on facebook – it was too good to be true, but honestly its all true.
My work schedule fits around my home life. I feel so respected by the company. they always treat us at team events and we are always thought of.
I’m Officially a Bronze Angel! 6 Months into being an angel and I’ve done 500+ hours of pure happiness. I couldn’t ever imagine doing another job ever again!
It’s the best team I have ever been part of. Those famous words I said when I first started ” I’ll only last two weeks.” are long gone!
Caring is something I have always been keen on starting, I have always been the type to want to help others, to make their day that bit easier,
I was quiet anxious about starting this but all of the angels welcomed me with open arms and really took me under their wings!
Anything I needed or questioned the angels guided me. I absolutely love a job where everyone is soooo happy to see you, so grateful for everything you do for them, no matter how small you may think this thing is.
Every single day is so much different to the day before, you certainly feel your confidence grow daily!
Visiting angels has been the best company I have ever worked for, as a young carer out there it can be scary, but with full training and support you will never Be happier in a job. I have never felt so appreciated for my work, I have never felt that I don’t have anywhere to turn because the office staff are always there with open arms! I think it’s amazing that we get chance to grow in this industry and we aren’t just a number to them, I couldn’t praise them enough if I tried! They have honestly been amazing.
I love being an angel for this company, we are all looked after by everyone in our team and we are like a little family.

I am a widowed mother of 3 Beautiful Daughters whom I am Very proud of .For 10 years I nursed my Husband at home with Bowel , Lung and Brain Cancer until he passed away in 2017 .Within that time I sort after the help I needed to assist me in being able to take care of him with my 3 young girls. I know what it’s like to feel helpless and lost, I also know what good care is when searching for help to take care and being able to entrust them with your loved ones.
I found Visiting Angels in May 2022 , I can honestly say that this company is like no other I’ve experienced. Becoming a carer for me was important, to be able to care and support people like they were one of my own, providing the support and love everyone needs in times of feeling vulnerable .We are a genuine work family, All caring and Supportive of each other in turn this enables us to care and support our clients and their Families in their time of need .With me knowing what it is like being on the other side , All I can say is I am Very Proud and honoured to be apart of this wonderful team !
I wish I had had them In my time of need.
